They stake vampires, don't they?
After a week of letting my brain meats marinate, I feel that 30 Days of Night deserves a proper review and analysis. Any movie that had me and my father embroiled in an hour-long discussion about the state of modern horror deserves it, but 30 Days has a special place in my dark heart. I haven't read the graphic novel, but from the moment I saw ( Read more... ) -
So I says to Mabel...Your daily dose of history.
Thanks to a lovely archaeologist, unevendays, I have a new CD to enjoy. And to think I was plotting to send some music her way just a moment ago...Danke, darling! I'll need your snail mail address ( Read more... ) -

I provide the lyric(s), and you give me the song and artist. I'll put the answers up no earlier than Wednesday morning ( Read more... ) -
Haven't done one of these in a while...
I have been watching more movies lately, so you get a movie quote game ;). I give you a quote, and you tell me what movie it's from. I'm usually blown away by how quickly you guys get these, so I'll try to be challenging. I'll post answers no earlier than Sunday night...

Just a spoonful of quizzies makes the medicine go down...
As stolen from msbutterpecan and myburningviolin...
